I just flashed my StrTrk and it is currently preparing itself for first used. It looks like everything went fairly smoothly.

There are two things I have noticed that you might want to improve in the near future:

1. Your auto.bat process makes it much too easily to accidentally not reboot after application unlock. I luckily already did that manually but I expected a confirmation question by the batch after closing the unlock tool. A lot of people will close the unlock tool first and then expect to be able to reboot their device ... but you batch just continues immediately.

You should include a "If you haven't restarted your device please do so now and hit enter once it has fully started back up".

2. I really appreciate your taste in women and the boob- ... erm ... bootscreen is certainly nice to look at. Sadly, it disqualifies the phone for usage in a professional work environment. As one of the previous posters in this thread I'll have to figure out how to replace it with something more "neutral" now. I hope this is not an unpopular opinion but it would be nice if future roms used a simple Windows Mobile or HTC logo :)

3. The integrated PIM Backup seems to have some serious screen resolution issues when trying to restore a backup. I'm not sure if this issue is specific to this ROM, though.
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
My god, Office Mobile is huge. Is there a CAB for WM Standard that allows for a clean and fully functional Storage Card installation of Office Mobile?
[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
Its unnecessary to reboot a phone after SDA Application Unlock, try that :)

But it works;)

[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Fair enough, I'll shut my up now. ;-)

I'll take a look. "Snow House" sounds harmless enough. Thank you. :-)

I'm sorry, I thought the CAB was just your standard-vanilla-straight-from-Microsoft Office Mobile 6.1 CAB ... the one that breaks several features and links when installed to the Storage Card. I was wrong, I just installed it to the storage card and it appears to be working flawlessly. Thank you so much, my StrTrk is becoming more perfect by the minute. :)

I found German xT9 (with manual installation) in this forum and it's also working flawlessly. I don't exactly need a German MUI but it's taking me a little bit to get used to the new terminology.

For Java I did not chose your recommendation but EsmertecJbed20080328.3.1.SP.CAB which so far is performing by far the best on my StrTrk with 3D, Sound, Storage Card installation and compatibility to almost everything and it actually fills the whole screen and doesn't leave this ugly bar at the bottom.

I'm wondering how the "New Voice Mail" feature works. My current provider simply sends me an SMS when there are new messages on my voicemail but it doesn't seem to support Windows Mobile's "New Voice Mail" feature.

Is this a matter of configuration or am I just out of luck?

Is it possible to remove this feature from my home-screen if I won't get it to work?
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Since the Comm Manager appears to be missing from the ROM entirely, I installed the one from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=355808

Sadly the "Data Connection" entry is permanently greyed out, is there any way to fix this?

Or could you maybe release a more compatible Comm Manager as a CAB install? I'd be more than happy with the original Windows Mobile 6.1 comm manager, that's more than enough eye candy for me. :)
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Ok, please tell me that I'm wrong ... but:

Is it possible that Bluetooth is currently not functional on this ROM?

If I start the pairing process on my PC the phone simply keeps ignoring it and no dialog to enter the pairing-key pops up ...

... if I it the other way around and try to add my PC to the phone I can chose a pairing code on the phone and I can enter it on the PC. After a rather long period of time my PC tells me that the Phone was added successfully (and it actually was) ... and at the exact same time the StrTrk claims it wasn't!

There seems to be no way to actually add my PC to the phones bluetooth devices for me and I tried this for hours now ...

Everything seems fine on Vista but this ROM simply ignores that. This used to be working fine on the stock ROM. :(

V9b kitchen added to 2nd post
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Wonderful. :)

Could you comment on my Bluetooth problem when you find the time? I'm still wondering if this is a problem that is specific to my setup or if this is a bug in the ROM that might even be easily fixed.
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
And another small but annoying bug:

The external screen doesn't always show the name or picture of the caller but just the number and the "unknown caller" default icon. :(

The phone uses the correct ringtone and name and picture are present in the call history ... it's just the rather important external display that doesn't always work while the internal one always works fine.

However: When I do receive a phone call when the phone is open and then close the lit the external display shows the caller correctly. Even better: All future calls (at least by this caller, couldn't test more) are also displayed correctly on the external display. Sadly this is a rather impractical workaround.

Still maybe this is just some autostart or registry issue and can be easily fixed?

just don't use download managers when downloading from rapidshare

bluetooth pairing ok on this rom with my brother's cingular 3125 and father's Nissan X-Trail :)
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
I'll try pairing with my wives netbook, maybe it's Vista SP2's new bluetooth stack that has some issues ...

Could you reproduce the external display issue:

Reboot the phone ... wait until it's fully started up ... call it from a number that is in the phone's address book:

Name and picture of the caller should appear on the external screen but don't :(
[HTC Startrek] zhangping_bnu:
I donot use any download manager

the web said

"Your IP address 210.73.58.126 is already downloading a file. Please wait until the download is completed."

:confused:
[HTC Startrek] silfox2000:
So your ISP use one IP adress for a lot of end-users. You have to wait untill no one is downloadig something from rapidshare and it will be your turn. Check frequently and you may be lucky.
[HTC Startrek] Pampooh:
LOL.:D Dang, Bluetooth worked that well huh.:D
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
I'm still completely desperate about Bluetooth. :(

I added the phone to just about every single Bluetooth enabled device I could find and it was successful added every single time on the PC or car ... but every single time the phone said the exact opposite, claims that there was a problem with the connection or the pairing key and refuses to add anything to its device list. It almost feels like it's a write error that causes this odd behavior. Or this weird Bluetooth SIM access tool that seems to run on startup?

And if I switch on bluetooth-discoverability and try the pairing the other way around it simply does nothing, there is no way to enter my pairing key anywhere on the phone. A dialog asking for the pairing-key would pop up on the WM5 stock ROM, this ROM does nothing.

Has anyone been able to pair this ROM with a PC or Laptop running XP or Vista?

Ok, scratch that, I just got it running on an XP machine and now its working for the other XP PC as well. Everything is working the way it should on those PCs, it looks like Vista SP2's brand new Bluetooth 2.1 stack is the culprit. I guess I'll have to solve this on my own. :(

Has anyone been able to reproduce the issue with the display of contacts on the external display? Or am I the only one using this ROM? ;)

Storing Email on the Storage Card with STD_V9b ?

Hello,

I use my StarTrek to access my email. Since I get a lot of email I use two registriy hacks to store the email on the storage card:

\HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings\PropertyPath="\Storage Card\MAPI"

\HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings\AttachPath="\Storage Card\MAPI\Attachments".

This works. But when my StarTrek is switched off and on again, a new folder "Storage Card" is created on the internal storage and the Storage Card is renamed to "Storage Card2".

This happens because the Inbox is started before the storage card drives is initialized. And this leads to my questions. Perhaps Erofich has an anwers:

Is there a way to start the initialization of the Storage Card driver before the inbox is started ?

Is there a firmware version, where I can use these registry hacks without the "Storage Card2" problem?

Kind regards

dcm1963
[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
check an Outlook Mobile settings, you may probably set it here (i mean storing mail attachments on storage card)

at least WM6.5Pro has this setting :)
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Can anyone here reproduce my problems with the external display?

Additionally, even in the call history sometimes the number is displayed instead of the name but somehow less frequently and not as easily to reproduce as on the external display. The same contact shows up fine at other times.

Erofich, would you be able to determine what might be causing this behavior? Any suggestions for a bugfix or workaround I could try?
[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
this is a known problem with all custom roms as i know
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
That's a shame as this is seriously problematic in day to day use. Has no one ever found the cause of this or maybe at least a practical workaround?

Hi erofich

This is Aldo, I've installed this rom, and i've seem a problem, there is not HTC manager, could you upload this file, please? and the other hand... it's possible to get spanish T9 for this rom?... please answer me... thanks

PD. this rom is good!!! i recommend to install it
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
I asked for that already, the comm manager is missing and the "wireless manager" isn't correctly linked and doesn't open when one selects "Comm Manager" after pressing the home button for two seconds.

So, yes, a fix for this would be highly appreciated.
[HTC Startrek] nada2k:
Geat ROM, but I would also love to have the CommManager back, as I turn off the phone part during the night, without having to turn off the whole phone.
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
You can do that through the "wireless manager" in the "settings"-slider on the home screen. Technically this wireless manager is almost sufficient to control the phone, however, as it is lacking in functionality and does not properly replace the Comm Manager (for example in the "Quick List") I would love to see a cab to either restore the WM 6.1 comm manager or a fully functional HTC one (the cabs I found for that one sadly are not as data connections can't be properly controlled).

when this rom install to 8500, give me an error at %51. now turn on my 8500, it show a nice girl and do nothing.

Dude, it's saying that this rom is a trial version and that the trial period has expired. It won't let me do anything!!!!!

How can I get around this? You really need to put a note on the first post that says this will stop working after X days, it really screwed up my day yesterday.
[HTC Startrek] mac2ric:
Is this a BETA ROM?

Rom looks nice, but has some issues to address... After using it for few hours and soft reset it gets me a message in a white screen:

BETA ROM Trial has expired... Contact ROM provider...

The only way to eliminated was get in Boot Mode manually and install my official ROM again. Is this a common problem?

Thanks for support...
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Oh no, now I'm tremendously worried to even reset my phone ... I just set everything up so perfectly :(

I hope Erofich can address this and maybe find a quick fix shortly ...
[HTC Startrek] mac2ric:
It happens to me yesterday also... You have get it to boot mode manually by pressing and hold both record (notes) and camera buttons and connect an USB cable to your PC while your device is turned off and then run your official ROM Update Utility. You can find it here:

I just read in the Raphael forum that it is because a beta version of windows mobile was used. Chef's are updating their ROM to use newer versions that aren't technically betas
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
That means backing up all the data and finding a different ROM for everyone who was lucky enough to not turn it off and losing all the data for everyone else ... mpf :(

Now need a good, stable WM 6.1 Standard ROM with a good amount of internal storage free for my Qtek 8500.

V9c ROM changes:

time-bomb removed

fixed hardware buttons shortcuts

Jbed Java added

NET CF 3.5 added

V9c ROM Download:

download automated install

btw, you are using all unofficial roms on your own risk

sorry for any inconvience
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Thank you Erofich. I assume there is no way to remove the time bomb without re-flashing and losing all my programs and settings?

I'm also not entirely happy with the inclusion of Jbed, I'd rather chose my own version and I'd rather use one that allows me to install my Java applications on my storage card. I know I can still do that, but it seems like a waste of space.

Same with .Net CF 3.5 which is rather huge and can be installed on the storage card almost entirely without any problems.

How much free storage space does this version have?

Is there a way to transfer all my installations and settings to the new ROM?

P.S.: I know that I could cook my own ROM if I could invest the time and effort and please don't take this as a complaint. In no way is it meant as one, I'm just voicing my opinion. You're doing an excellent job and without you this StrTrk community wouldn't be remotely the same.

How to flash this over the beta/buggy ROM?

Erofich,

First of all, thanks for your outstanding work.

What I need to know is what's the easiest way to replace the beta ROM. Right now, when I turn on my phone, it gets stuck on the "This concludes the beta test..." message and ActiveSync don't work...

Thank you very much.
[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
try this:

when your device is turning on quickly press-press-press-press left soft key button until you will get in Start menu

v9c and german mui from pro

Dear Erofich,

fist of all thanx a lot for your continous good work. Without your effort the startrek wouldn't be so nice to be to use. I use your rom's since a long time and never had any problems with it. I write this, because i've seen that you did another version of the pro one where a german ui is included. I tried the old pro one's but I'm back to standard, which is in my opinion the better ui for the non touch startrek. Is there a way to get the german mui files from the pro one to the standard one? Thanx a lot and have fun!
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Bugs and Problems in v9c

I'm hoping that development on this so far great ROM is still going on so here is a list of bugs I experienced and minor issues I'd like to see fixed in future versions:

Bugs:

Comm Manager link in the device's "quick list" (pressing the home button for two seconds) is dead. This can be fixed by installing any Comm Manager but it would probably be nice if it would link to the Wireless Manager as long as no "real" Comm manager is installed or if the Comm Manager from WM 6.1 were available in the ROM.

The "bluewater" homescreen wallpaper is broken but now both "Water" and "bluewater" link to "Water" instead. "bluewater" can still be used if chosing the "Blue" color theme an the "Default" wallpaper, though.

I'm still experiencing my external screen caller ID bug, it appears to have to do with the size of a contact. If it includes several numbers, addresses and a picture there seems to be a timeout of some sorts. :(

Bluetooth pairing is broken for Vista SP2 but this is probably a bug in Vista.

My other big issue with the ROM is that it is wasting precious internal storage space left and right leaving just 10mb free on my Qtek 8500. :(

The .NET CF 3.5 could be installed on the storage card without problems and .NET CF 4.0 is right around the corner, integrating it into the ROM is superfluous and wasteful.

While the integrated Jbed version supports background running it has so many compatibility issues (sound, 3D) that it really isn't much fun. And one really doesn't have much space left to install any Java apps at all since these end up on the internal storage. Over 2Mb could be freed up by removing JBed again and letting the user chose.

BK.bmp - the sadly rather makeshift looking background for the MRU programs is over 180kb in size and for me doesn't really add much to the look and feel of the ROM (I always remove the responsible registry key to get rid of it immediately since it really only works with a single theme and even then looks somehow off).

So many OEM ringtones. I'm really not a big fan of the T-Mobile ringtone and I would prefer it, if the included ringtones were reduced to the WM 6.1 default tones.

The "\My Documents\Templates" folder is full of absolute eyesores that no sane person would use anyways ... removing them would free up another quarter megabyte.

Removing the "Web Services" StartMenu folder can be easily done by the user but it doesn't serve a useful purpose so I would remove it from the ROM.

WM5torage v1.9 is available offering some neat additional features. If you aren't aware of any issues you might want to upgrade the integrated version.

P.S.: I just bought you a beer via Paypal. :)
[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
hey, thanks! :D ;)

i will upload an updated kitchen in a few days, so you will be able to remove what you want and build your own rom :)
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
I'm looking forward to it. I really have to look into building my own ROM, I have to find a good "how to". I'll be away from Thursday to Monday (during which time my phone is really important - I'm just setting everything back up, again) but maybe I can spend some time on this the weekend after.

Anyways, I was hoping I made a few valid points and if you are planning a new release, maybe a few of those are helpful and you'll use them to build an even better ROM. :)

[HTC Startrek] ajohn3125:
Windows Mobile 6 on Cingular 3125

Great Rom upgrade, the only real problem and its kind of a big one is that once you install this rom the developers don't tell you its only a beta version. It last a couple weeks and then locks your phone up. Everything that has been compiled will be lost because you have to reinstall the original version rom or start all over again with the beta. I know they probable put alot of work into this rom but man you should at least say thats its a beta test rom and will lock your phone up after a certain amount of time. Total loss dude kinda sucks.
[HTC Startrek] forfunbaby:
it's good Rom (V9c), but no working if i put 2GB Sandisk Micro SD.

it's better the use this Rom without SD card.

[HTC Startrek] Erofich:
yes, that's very bad that Microsoft doesn't inform the rom cookers about version of this rom - beta or final...
[HTC Startrek] bluepresto1:
This is the only gripe I have about this ROM. Other than that, I've been using it for several days and it's working great.
[HTC Startrek] jebus_crisis:
So is this beta rom?

Do you happen to know if this is a beta version, or when you say the time-bomb is fixed, you mean it won't expire?
[HTC Startrek] NoFunk:
Hi Erofich!

I tried this ROM on my old Cingular 3125 and it's got the potential to breathe new life into it. I love the WM6.1 on this phone and I appreciate all the effort you've got through to make this work.

I had the V9b version working great for a week or so until the time bomb hit. I re-flashed it with the latest V9c version but I've run into a couple of problems:

A couple of times, the phone has just shut off with no warning while typing in text messages. It could be some kind of hardware issue... but it's only happened twice and I can't reproduce it.

Yesterday the phone lost all of its settings. All my email accounts and network settings disappeared and it looks like the .NET framework got corrupted since all of my programs that rely on it get errors and won't run. I don't know how to un-install it since it was cooked into the ROM and if I try to re-install it I get an error.

Sounds like I just need to re-flash it again, but I'd rather wait for a new fresh version without the .NET framework and the Java stuff so I won't have to re-flash it a 4th time later.

The only other program I've got installed on it is a program called DontForget that turns off the blinking LED and lets you use it for message alerts instead of network status. http://magazin.softimage.cz/?page_id=26 I doubt this program is causing any problems, but it's possible so I thought I'd mention it.
